The Veggie Paragraph

The Veggie Paragraph

Becoming a vegetarian is a wise decision because it has many benefits.  The first benefit you will see as a vegetarian is that you will save money. For example, compare the price of peanut butter to the price of meat. Meat and fish are more expensive than vegetables. The second major benefit is that following a vegetarian diet is great for your health. Specifically, you will consume much less fat and cholesterol after you stop eating meat. Also, eating more vegetables helps prevent cancer. The last great benefit you will see is social. By "social" benefit I meant that you would meet other vegetarians and exchange new recipes with them. Vegetarians often eat at the same restaurants and are a kind of community. To sum up, a variety of good things happen when you stop eating meat.
